Description

The Ripple Sharing Pitcher is crafted by the artisans at Lin's Ceramics Studio in Taiwan. Made from earthenware clay pottery, the Ripple adds a natural elegance to any Gongfu Cha tea service. Sharing pitchers like the Ripple are commonly used in this traditional style of tea brewing. They act as a decanting vessel. Decant from a gaiwan or small porcelain or clay teapot into the Ripple Sharing Pitcher, then pour into small tea cups like our Gongfu Cups or Serenity Tea Cups. This style of tea service ensures that each guest receives an equally strong infusion. We love the woven reed-grass band on this piece, which allows you to hold the sharing pitcher without scalding your fingers.
